Core Making Machine Market Global Report 2026

The core making machine market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $1.45 billion in 2025 to $1.54 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.3%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to expansion of global metal casting and foundry industry, rising demand for automotive engine and transmission components, conventional reliance on manual and semi-automatic core-making methods, growth of industrial machinery manufacturing, and increasing production of infrastructure and construction equipment.

The core making machine market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $1.98 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.5%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to rising demand for lightweight automotive and electric vehicle components, growing adoption of automation in foundry operations, increasing focus on precision engineering and complex hollow casting designs, expansion of aerospace and defense manufacturing activities, and a shift toward energy-efficient and sustainable casting processes. Major trends in the forecast period include increasing adoption of fully automated core shooting systems for high-volume casting production, growing demand for precision sand core manufacturing in automotive and aerospace components, rising integration of robotics in core handling and mold preparation processes, expansion of energy-efficient and low-emission core-making technologies, and increased use of resin-coated sand systems for improved dimensional accuracy and surface finish.

The growth of the automotive manufacturing industry is expected to drive the core making-machine market forward. The automotive manufacturing industry refers to large-scale production of motor vehicles and components across global markets through standardized industrial processes. The expansion of automotive manufacturing is driven by rising global vehicle demand fueled by population growth and increasing urban mobility requirements. A core-making machine enhances automotive manufacturing efficiency by enabling the precise production of complex casting components such as engine blocks and cylinder heads, thereby improving performance and consistency. For instance, in April 2026, according to the International Organization of Motor Vehicle Manufacturers (OICA), a France-based automotive association, global motor vehicle production increased from 92.7 million units in 2024 to 96.4 million units in 2025, representing a growth of approximately 3.9% compared to the previous year. Therefore, the expansion of the automotive manufacturing industry is driving the growth of the core making machine market.

The rising industrialization is expected to drive the growth of the core making machine market forward. Industrialization refers to the process of transforming an economy from predominantly agriculture-based activities to manufacturing and large-scale industrial production. The growth in industrialization is driven by increasing urbanization, as expanding urban populations fuel demand for manufactured goods and large-scale infrastructure development. The core-making machine supports industrialization by enabling high-precision and large-scale production of complex metal casting components, thereby enhancing manufacturing efficiency and meeting rising industrial demand. For instance, in July 2025, according to Eurostat, a Luxembourg-based statistical office of the European Union, in May 2025, industrial production increased by 3.7% in the euro area and by 3.4% across the European Union (EU) compared with May 2024. Therefore, the rising industrialization is driving the growth of the core making machine market.

The rising investment in manufacturing infrastructure is expected to drive the growth of the core making-machine market forward. Investment in manufacturing infrastructure refers to the allocation of capital toward the development and upgrading of facilities, equipment, utilities, and logistics systems that support industrial production and manufacturing activities. The increase in investment in manufacturing infrastructure is driven by rising industrial demand, as expanding production requirements necessitate advanced facilities, efficient logistics, and modernized equipment to improve output and operational efficiency. The core-making machine supports investment in manufacturing infrastructure by enabling high-precision and scalable production of complex casting components, thereby enhancing the efficiency and capability of modern industrial facilities. For instance, in October 2024, according to the United States Department of Transportation, a US-based federal transport authority, it announced nearly $635 million for 22 bridge projects, adding to the broader bridge program’s $8.1 billion investment across 100 projects in 44 states. Therefore, the rising investment in manufacturing infrastructure is driving the growth of the core making-machine market.
